The Welsh Prize Singers.

The Welsh Prize Singers, mention of
whom was made in THE HERALD some
weeks ago, are making a pronounced
success of their eastern entertainments.
The Cambria melody makers will, no
doubt, be out this way ere long, when
the public here can judge for them
selves. Of .the qualifications of the
double quartet the following is sample
of the press notices received throughout
New England:
Thursday evening large and fashion
able audience assembled in the Ala
media, ANXIOUS to hear the Welsh Prize
Singers.
The concert showed that the reputa-
ton of the company has not been over
a. vertised In this country. Their songs
were nationally characteristic, and the
heartiness, clearness and snap with
which each number was rendered was
refreshing as well as satisfying. After
so many gingerbread concerts, this
repast Of musical beefstesk was well
worth the admission fee. The solos
were finely rendered, and in every case
received eDcoreS, some twice repeated.
The manipulating was simply superb.

Christmas Goods

Now that the time is approaching to
bestow tokens of love and affection to
members of the family, relations and
friends, it is also well to bear in mind
the place of business where a dollar
can be made to go furthest. In antici-
patton of an extra lively Christmas
trade, Simon Brothers have spared no
pains to make their stock this season
one OF the most complete ever brought
into Utah. A number of clerks are
now busily at work arranging the dis
play.in the different departments. To

The jealous and active agent OF
Harper Brothers, Mr.. G. g. Burton

Rockies. He has spent nearly two
months in Utah, distrib uting Harpers

A Good Woman Gone,

Lewis had been i'll but a few days, and
her somewhat sudden death will come

among whom tn good lady was held in

CONDUCTORS IN WISCONSIN.
Collecting Fares and Tickets by

of Wisconsin, and who is now cooling
off in Chicago from the effects of some
warm experience which he had in that
benighted section, entertained a party
of friends Sunday in the following vein

New Method of COking Coal and
Burning Charcoal.

Mr.. 7. P. Thomas of this city b as in
vented new method of coking coal
and burning charcoal. The ovens are
charged on the top and will run con-
tinuously with but little exception. The
coal or charcoal, as the case may be, is
moved gradually down into chamber
below, as 1t becomes ready. These
ovens do not require as much labor and
yet will burn three times as much as
the ovens now in common use. Another
great advantage claimed for these ovens
is, that it is not necessary to shut down
to discharge and refill. The expense of
construction will not be greater than in
the old style of ovens.

In ADDICTION to the subject of lead,
which the Provo Chamber of Commerce
intends to discuss next Tuesday, that
portion of the Presidents Message
recommending the removal of the wool
tariff" which is thought of equal i'm
portanoe with the lead question, will
be talked up.
The CALL for a general meeting at the
Chamber of Commerce on Monday
night involves two subjects of grave
importance to the people of this section.
Whatever may be individual views
and wool industries, the necessity for
ton appearing elsewhere is one to cit
liens generally. The attention which
the calls of the Chamber of Commerce
excite, give evidence of the growing in
fiuence of that body, and there is little
douot that very large and interested
attendance will be the result of this CALL
The idc Q Is to indulge in a full and free
interchange of views on the subjects in
volved, the wool and the lead products.
There are very few persons of means
who are not to greater or less extent
pecuniarily and directly interested in
these two matters. That the action of
the Chamber will carry weight, there
can be no doubt, and it is therefore of
the graYest concern that the fullest
possible representation shall be had at
the meeting, and that the action, when
taken, shall receive unanimous en-
dorsement Provo, Park City and other
chambers have signiied their inten ton
Of participating.

of the tariff on wool, as recommended
by President Cleveland in his message
to Congress. These are matters OF vital
importance to our city and Territory
and to the west in general, and it is
hoped that all our citizens will feel SUI
